Aww I've been wanting to read "The A.B.C. Murders" I know there a new Movie or Miniseries out about it but my Library only had the audio copy and I wanted to read The Ebook/Physical copy for once so I may have to buy it.

How are you liking it?

Lizzy Seitz (cookinggurl43) | 53 comments Day 4 I listened to an hour and fifteen minutes of The Breakdown by B.A. Paris but technically I read it at 1.5x so I don’t actually know how much of it I read hahah! On Day 5 so far I read a childrens book called Little Witch’s Big Night to my mom while cleaning her house because it was a favorite of mine as a kid! So one stand-alone complete technically lol 😂

message 15: by Maija (new)

Maija (maijavi) On day 4 I finished Roses and Rot by Kat Howard, which is a standalone about an artist retreat that has ties to Faerie. I started reading it last month but count finishing it as a win for AYearAThon! I gave it 3.5 stars.

I'm currently in the middle of Temper by Nicky Drayden, another standalone fantasy that I started last month. I'm not sure if I can finish it this week, but I'll try to make some progress.

I just finished P.S. I Love You this morning and I loved it. It's so beautifully written, it taught me to stop taking everything for granted :) I love this book <3 you should read this book if it's your kinda cup of tea :)

Sophia (sophiax) | 3 comments Days 3, 4 & 6 were not so good reading days. I kinda just lost the want to read and got distracted that I didn't do any work either>_< I read a good chunk of Night Film on day 5, but I slipped and did not read much on day 6. I read up to page 406 last night and now I'm trying to sprint read to finish Night Film!
